The WWE Universe was already clamoring for Dwayne Johnson to face his cousin Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40 in April this year. But now fans seem to have changed their demands as Johnson’s 11-year-old tweet is making rounds on social media.

Now pro wrestling fans also want to see ‘The Great One’ go one-on-one against LA Knight in WWE. The viral tweet grabbed the attention of many pro wrestling lovers, prompting them to react to it on X (formerly called Twitter). Let’s find out what the old tweet was about.

Dwayne Johnson’s decade-old prediction about LA Knight

‘The Brahma Bull’ hosted a reality competition TV series called The Hero in 2013. The contestants underwent physical, mental, and moral tests in the show to compete for the title of “hero” and a cash reward. ‘The Defiant One’ was one of the contenders in the reality series.

During the time they shared in the making of the series, Johnson realized Knight’s true potential and even tweeted about it on X. This is what he wrote about Knight on social media 11 years ago.

Though the post is more than a decade old, it is suddenly getting viral on X. Seeing Johnson and ‘The Defiant One’ in a single frame has sparked fans’ desires and now they are asking the two superstars to meet in the ring for a showdown.

The $800 million-wort Hollywood star and Knight have been talked about in the same context before. But fans have never asked the two to square off before. Now after seeing the 11-year-old tweet, people are suddenly clamoring for the match to take place.

It could be because now Knight is also a fan favorite like Johnson and has a whole fandom backing him. Let’s have a look at what the fans had to say about Johnson’s decade-old tweet featuring ‘The Defiant One’.

Besides The Rock vs. Roman Reigns, fans have now also added The Rock vs. LA Knight to their wishlist.

Since WWE may have already booked ‘The Rock’ for Mania this year, fans want Knight and ‘The Brahma Bull’ to wrestle in another premium live event.

A decade before ‘The Defiant One’ became the fastest-rising star in the history of SmackDown, Johnson recognized his true talent and knew that one day he would become a successful superstar.
